Pope Leo II

Pope Leo II (611-28 June 683) was Pope from 681 to 683, succeeding Pope Agatho and preceding Pope Benedict II.

Biography
Leo was born to a father named Paulus on Sicily, and he was one of the Sicilian clergymen who fled to Rome due to the attacks on Sicily by Arab pirates. He was elected pope a few days after the death of Pope Agatho, and during his reign he prevented the Archbishopric of Ravenna from becoming autocephalous and moved religious relics from northern Italy to the south to stop the Lombards from seizing them.
